MONITOR CONTROL
Use the Monitor Control menu to configure monitor and overlay settings, control surface priorities, brightness, and
gestures.
MONITOR
Select the monitor to configure from the drop-down menu at the top of the menu. The other settings on the menu are
applicable to the selected monitor.
NOTE:
Changes to Monitor Control settings take effect when you close the menu.
MODE
Determines the elements displayed on the monitor:
Clean
: Only the video displays. The Upper Status Row, Lower Status Row, and overlays do not display.
Overlay
: The overlay displays. Overlays include the Upper Status Row and the Lower Status Row.
Mirror
: The monitor mirrors another screen at the same resolution. You cannot mirror a screen that is set to Clean.
The Mirror option is available based on the settings of the other attached monitors, and includes the name of the
monitor that can be mirrored.
NOTE:
You can set a maximum of four (4) monitors to Overlay at a time. To assign additional monitors to Overlay,
mirror a monitor with the same resolution that is set to Overlay.
NOTE:
When two (2) touchscreens are attached to the camera with the same resolution and one (1) is currently the
control surface, set the other to mirror it and give the effect of having two (2) control surfaces.
OVERLAY
Select which overlay shows on top of the video. RED
®
provides preset overlays, which have “(RED)” in the overlay
name. Create custom overlays in the Overlay tab. For more information, go to
.
RESOLUTION
Select the output resolution for monitors (you cannot select a resolution for LCDs and EVFs, since the resolution is
determined automatically). For more information about available HD-SDI and HDMI resolutions, go to
FREQUENCY
Determines the monitor frequency. Available frequencies depend on the selected monitor. The LCD resolution defaults
to 60.00 Hz, which is the optimal refresh rate for the RED LCDs.
For HD-SDI monitors, the frequency depends on the project time base. For more information, go to to
HD-SDI Auto: Sets the frequency equal to the Project Time Base, except when the Project Time Base is 47.95/48 fps.
When the Project Time Base is 47.95/48 fps, the frequency is half that rate (23.98/24 Hz).
TOOLS
Enables the false color modes on the monitor. For more information, go to
.
UI FLIP/MIRROR
Flip the graphical user interface (GUI) vertically and mirror horizontally (not rotated). Use this setting when mounting a
monitor upside down. This setting only affects the monitor, and does not affect captured footage.
